My real blog is at <a href="http://clappingtrees.com/" mce_href="http://clappingtrees.com">ClappingTrees</a> (if only there's a way to link to my real blog from here, like the way I could at <a href="http://elgg.net/jktan/weblog">my Elgg.net blog</a>!) and my elearning portal is at <a href="http://netcoachasia.com/" mce_href="http://NETCoachAsia.com">NETCoach Asia</a>. <br /></p> <p style="font-weight: bold;">Wanna see some real sites that I've helped to create? Check these out:</p> <ul><li><a href="http://everesti.com.sg/" mce_href="http://everesti.com.sg">Everest Innovation</a>: Installed WordPress with a few clicks on a hosted server, changed the template, worked remotely with a graphics artist (in the USA, I think), installed some plugins, etc. Took almost a month to enter the company and workshop data, to edit them and to finetune the look-and-feel of the site.</li><li><a href="http://7fountains.wordpress.com/" mce_href="http://7fountains.wordpress.com">The Seven Fountains</a>: Installed WordPress with a few clicks on a hosted server, added posts and pages, copied and posted info from <a href="http://www.carefor.org/7fountains/7fountains_en.html" mce_href="http://www.carefor.org/7fountains/7fountains_en.html">earlier site</a>, and site was ready for public view within half a day; a few months later added a photo gallery and edited some content.</li><li><a href="http://wiki.ntu.edu.sg/" mce_href="http://wiki.ntu.edu.sg">Blog and Wiki @ Nanyang Technological University</a>: Tech support staff installed Expression Engine on one of the university's servers. Took me a few days to get familiar with the software's control panel, change the blog's theme, add posts, edit content and make the wiki's theme look like the blog's. </li></ul><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21073369-7400477848628227577?l=rapidfoss.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>ClappingTreesnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21073369.post-1137460765718676492006-01-17T09:19:00.000+08:002007-01-18T14:33:03.123+08:00According to Carroll, J. &amp; Broadhead, R.
